An exciting new development is progressing in Modbury, on the corner of Smart Road and Australia Avenue.

Australia Reserve is being upgraded by Council and will feature an inviting playground and lush green reserve space. Architecturally designed two-storey townhouses with sustainability features will frame the park.

The Council maintained playground is being installed and includes swings, a climbing net, balancing elements and a slide.

The infrastructure and foundation works are on schedule for the ‘euca’ housing development, ready for housing construction to commence later in the year.

Landscaping and planting are occurring in selected areas to ensure well-established green spaces when the project is completed.

  • Wow this is a huge area for the kids to run wild and let off some energy. With the new playground upgrade in June 2017 this reserve/playground/skate park is worth the visit. As soon as I got to the gate I was super excited to see the colourful equipment painted green and orange that awaits you. The bright equipment is a fabulous add to this existing skate park. A multi level climbing tower is the main structure to this playground and caters for all ages First level is for the little ones and has a little slide whilst the big kids can keep climbing the tower and enjoy the tubular slide that looks like a small water slide. Along with the colourful tower this playground has a swing set including a baby swing, a little see saw, a climbing area with monkey bars and a few other pieces for the little ones to play on with most pieces protected by the shade cloth. Not far from the play equipment you will find fitness equipment, followed by a basketball ring then the Skate park. Look further a field and right down the other end of this reserve is a cricket net,…
